BERTRAM GROSVENOR GOODHUE: ARCHITECT AND MASTER OF MANY ARTS.

by GOODHUE, BERTRAM GROSVENOR

  • Used

Edited by Charles Harris Whitaker.

Folio, tan and blue linen. Spine a little darkened, bottom of spine starting to ravel. An excellent copy in defective dust jacket (lacking spine and with some chips and splits) but with design intact. A monumental work (Karpel B1186) with four color plates and 273 black and white plates, including photographs and plans.

A key American architect (1869-1924), his work spanned many styles from the Gothic Revival of churches and academic buildings to the Spanish Colonial Revival of the 1915 Panama-Pacific Exposition to Byzantine Revival for St. Bartholomew's to the modernist work of his later churches, court houses and the Los Angeles Public Library, which became the dominant California regional vernacular.

He was also an important book illustrator and designer of the stunning Arts and Crafts style Altar Book of 1896, among others, and a typographer, creating Cheltenham for the Cheltenham Press and Merrymount for the Merrymount Press.

Description:
In Verona, Per A. Scolari. 1749-1750. Hard Cover. The first three volumes of what was eventually an eight-volume set. Vol I: 4 p.l., 388 p.; Vol II: [6], 395-838, [2] p.; Vol. III: 325, [326-327] pages; illustrations; quarto; 27 cm. These historical notices of the churches of Verona are concerned with their architectural history and the paintings and other artwork contained in each. Biancolini published his most significant documents in these early volumes. He continued to add to this foundation and published volumes through the eighth, which appeared in 1771. Schlosser-Magnino (p. 567) calls for 7 volumes, but the most complete set we could find, the one in the Avery Collection at Columbia, has eight in nine volumes. This is a foundation source for the study of architecture in Verona. Very good, untrimmed copy in contemporary cardboard. Stock#OB120.
